I debated whether to include WhatsApp on this list, but it is an app I use constantly each day. If you’re fed up with the Apple Podcasts app and want to support a brilliant independent developer, go grab Overcast. I stuck with it for as long as I could (and no, I have no idea why, either), but recently returned to the brilliant Overcast for my podcast listening needs. The latter is dreadful and seems to get worse with every new version of iOS. I listen to a lot of podcasts, and I’ve hopped back and forth between Overcast and Apple’s own Podcasts app. I rarely use it to compose or reply to emails, but if I have to, it’s just as capable of helping me bash through a busy inbox. As good as the desktop client is, the iPhone version makes email triage a complete piece of cake. Spark is actually at its best on the iPhone. For my admittedly dreadful approach to email, it works wonders I can’t find anything that comes remotely close. I’m a bit picky about which email client I use. It’s also the most common tool I rely on for replying to comments. This is why the YouTube Studio app is easily the most used app on my iPhone. Any YouTuber who suggests they don’t do this is probably telling porkies. It’s not perfect (the community management is inherently broken and certain features are unfathomably reserved for the web app), but my stat addiction ensures I constantly open the Medium app throughout the day. I use the Medium app on the iPhone for two things – checking my stats and occasionally reading articles. You may even be reading this article on that very platform. Simple event entry, a considerately designed interface for quickly glancing at what’s coming up, and a genuinely useful widget complete the package. I’ve not experimented with many others, to be fair, but that’s because Fantastical is so damn good it keeps you hooked. There’s nothing wrong with the built-in calendar app on the iPhone. On the iPhone, I use Things to check the current day’s tasks each morning and occasionally add new to-do items. So, after a bit of deliberation, I decided to head back to an old flame: Things. I was an Omnifocus user for many years, but always knew I was only scratching the surface of precisely 3.4% of its capabilities. Thanks to my sieve-like memory, I need a brilliant to-do list app, and that’s exactly what I get from Things. As it turns out, there are exactly ten, which makes for a lovely listicle article.
